Dunk-a-Roos are a snack food from Betty Crocker, first launched in 1988. It consists of a snack-sized package containing cookies and icing; the cookies are meant to be dunked into the icing before eating. Individual snack packages contain about ten small cookies and one cubic inch of icing. The cookies are made in a variety of shapes, the most common being a circle with an uppercase "D" in the center. Other shapes included the mascot in different poses.

The product's mascot is a cartoon kangaroo. The original mascot was Sydney, a caricature of modern Australian culture, wore a hat, vest, and tie and spoke with an Australian accent, voiced by John Cameron Mitchell. At the height of their popularity in 1996, a contest known as "Dunk-a-Roos Kangaroo Kanga-Who Search" was held, resulting in the new mascot: Duncan, named the dunkin' daredevil.[1]
